The housing market here in Turkey is extremely buoyant, making buying property a sensible option. Real Estate is strong compared to elsewhere in Europe, and the Turkish Government simplified the buying process, which is now quick and easy.
When buying a property abroad, you need to gather all the information regarding the country's buying process: the economy, real estate market, and how to pay for the property through payment plans, a mortgage, or self-financing.
Many Expats who want to live here all year round often sell their home to buy the property outright. If they are looking to buy a holiday home, they either re-mortgage their home or look at equity release plans. It is definitely worth looking at all the options available before getting finance in Turkey.
